bq. Smith is buying EGHT for a number of reasons. “First, it has a better product than Vonage,” he says. “Second, it just sold off its microelectronics business–it’s now a voice broadband pure play. And the pricing is the killer app here: It’s a flat fee, $19.95 a month for unlimited phone calls in the U.S. and Canada and $29.95 per month if you include Europe and Asia.”

What do they say about, a fool and his money soon part ways….blah! blah!
